Wacky Wednesday

Not only is it Wacky Wednesday, it's also the first day of SNOWDOWN 2014!
The ultimate winter celebration in Historic Durango Colorado!

The theme of this year's celebration is

 "Safari so Good" so we are!

Here's an easy project to get into the spirit of Snowdown!

 This was just the beginning!

We'll always be going

 in the

 right direction!

Is that a panther sneaking 

up on us?

The best part of all this is that these are animals and flowers from our friends at Safari LTD!

Flashback Friday

It's a new Flashback Friday photo!

 I've gone to more seasonal attire and a whole new hat to partake on our Friday adventures! 

What better way to celebrate an adventure than by wearing a safari hat?

 One of my all - time favorites!

Whoa, remember when we first opened and we had all those toobs of little critters? 

Oh yeah, that's a Safari LTD thing huh?

We thought it would be cool if we could offer kids (and grown ups too) the chance to pick their own critters and fill an empty toob. That's when we ordered thousands upon thousands upon thousands of individual critters, buildings, bugs, sharks, turtles, North American  Wildlife, and jungle animals!

 Not to mention how much fun it is to tell people that the  toobs full of pure Rocky Mountain Air are $10 and we throw in 12 creatures for free.....

Whoa! 

We received abuncha new hats this week so I have been able to expand my horizons and go on new adventures just by switching my hats!  I realize the hat I have on in this photo doesn't look very thrilling but it really is!

This hat helps to keep my hair outta my eyes so I can see more clearly on windy days... or any day!

This hat has mountains and pine trees on it to remind me to look up when I go outdoors....

This comfy cap has velcro..... need I say more?

This gem is gently worn and has the words "Durango Colorado" right across the front of it! My local pride shows when I have it on!

But the most important role this hat plays is that it is an all occasion hat that has become my trusted companion!
